Anti-detection browser automation for AI agents
MCP server for browser automation using Camoufox - an anti-detection Firefox browser.
npx camoufox-mcp
Add to claude_desktop_config.json:
Basic:
{
"mcpServers": {
"camoufox": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["camoufox-mcp"]
}
}
}
With Proxy (via env vars):
{
"mcpServers": {
"camoufox": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["camoufox-mcp"],
"env": {
"PROXY_SERVER": "http://1.2.3.4:8080",
"PROXY_USER": "username",
"PROXY_PASS": "password"
}
}
}
}
Then in ~/.config/camoufox-mcp/settings.json:
{
"proxy": {
"enabled": true,
"server": "${PROXY_SERVER}",
"username": "${PROXY_USER}",
"password": "${PROXY_PASS}",
"geoip": true
}
}

list_sessions | List all sessions with their page counts and metadata |
save_session | Export a session's cookies and localStorage to a JSON file |
close_session | Close a session and all its pages |
list_context_files | List available context files registered in settings |
| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
new_page | Create a new page, optionally in a specific session |
list_pages | List all open pages with their session IDs |

Sessions enable running multiple authenticated profiles in parallel. Each session is an isolated browser context with its own cookies and localStorage.
Browser (single Camoufox instance)
├── Session "github" (cookies from github.json)
│ ├── Page: github.com
│ └── Page: github.com/repo
├── Session "linkedin" (cookies from linkedin.json)
│ └── Page: linkedin.com/feed
└── Session "default" (no pre-loaded state)
└── Page: example.com
Create a session with pre-loaded authentication:
create_session with contextPath: "github-cookies.json" — returns a sessionIdnew_page with url: "https://github.com" and the sessionId — opens GitHub already logged inRun two accounts simultaneously:
create_session with contextPath: "account1.json" — session Acreate_session with contextPath: "account2.json" — session Bnew_page in session A — logged in as account 1new_page in session B — logged in as account 2Save session state for later:
save_session with outputPath: "my-session.json" — exports cookies + localStoragecreate_session with contextPath: "my-session.json" — restoredContext files use Playwright's storageState format:
{
"cookies": [
{
"name": "session_id",
"value": "abc123",
"domain": ".example.com",
"path": "/",
"expires": 1735689600,
"httpOnly": true,
"secure": true,
"sameSite": "Lax"
}
],
"origins": [
{
"origin": "https://example.com",
"localStorage": [
{ "name": "token", "value": "xyz789" }
]
}
]
}
Add context file paths to settings.json to make them discoverable via list_context_files. Sessions are created lazily on demand — no memory is used until the agent calls create_session:
{
"contextPaths": [
"/path/to/github-cookies.json",
"/path/to/linkedin-cookies.json"
]
}
The agent can then call list_context_files to see what's available, and create_session with the desired contextPath to load it when needed.
Create ~/.config/camoufox-mcp/settings.json:
{
"browser": {
"headless": false,
"viewport": [1280, 1080],
"timeout": 30000,
"humanize": 0.5
},
"proxy": {
"enabled": true,
"server": "http://proxy.example.com:8080",
"username": "user",
"password": "pass",
"geoip": true
},
"contextPaths": []
}
HTTP/HTTPS Proxy:
{ "proxy": { "enabled": true, "server": "http://1.2.3.4:8080" } }
SOCKS5 Proxy:
{ "proxy": { "enabled": true, "server": "socks5://1.2.3.4:1080" } }
With Authentication (using env vars):
{
"proxy": {
"enabled": true,
"server": "${PROXY_SERVER}",
"username": "${PROXY_USER}",
"password": "${PROXY_PASS}",
"geoip": true
}
}
geoip: trueauto-adjusts browser timezone/locale based on proxy IP location.
